Homes in and around Hucknall vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Landlords in Hucknall can book a strip-out to see the real condition of a damaged bathroom before choosing between a refit and a renovation. We time strip-outs in Hucknall for just before the fit, so you are not left without a bathroom while waiting for products.

Supplies across most of Nottinghamshire are hard. Hard water leaves white marks on dark grout and gloss tiles, so matt finishes and stain-resistant grout are the practical choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A note of what was found: floor and wall condition, pipe runs and any damaged timber
Isolating the water and capping the supply to each fitting with a proper end, then checking for leaks
Removal of the bath or shower tray, enclosure, basin, WC, furniture and accessories
Lights, fan, shaver socket and heated rail disconnected and made safe by a qualified electrician where needed

Decisions to make first

Salvage

If you want to keep a cast-iron bath, a radiator or a piece of furniture, say so before we start, so it comes out whole rather than in pieces.

Timing

Strip out just before the fit rather than weeks ahead, so the house is without a bathroom for as short a time as possible.

Rules that apply in England

In England, stripping out a bathroom does not need planning permission or building regulations approval in itself. Building regulations come in with what follows, such as new drainage under Part H or new circuits under Part P.

How do you get a cast-iron bath out?

A cast-iron bath can weigh well over 100 kg, so it is usually broken up in place with the room protected, unless you want to keep it. Taking one out whole needs several people, a clear route and care on the stairs. Tell us at the survey if you want it saved.
